I write the principles I want to live by on a regular basis. They’ve remained fairly consistent over the years.
1. Everything is connected.
Therefore, I want to be mindful that every action I take will eventually come back to me.
2. Everyone knows everything, eventually.
Therefore, I want to be sure I act with transparency with a desire to be fair.
3. I know nothing.
Therefore, I want to be curious and always seek to listen and learn.
I fail at some of these regularly. But it’s been important to come back to them and validate my actions and consider ways to improve.

Their principles suggest that they value mindfulness, transparency, and curiosity, which are also key traits of individuals who possess high emotional intelligence. They appear to be someone who is self-reflective, constantly evaluating their actions and seeking ways to improve.
Philosophically, this person seems to hold a worldview that values interconnectedness and the idea that all actions have consequences. Their principles suggest that they value fairness, transparency, and humility.

Overall, this person seems to be someone who values personal growth, ethical behavior, and interpersonal relationships. They are likely to be someone who is self-aware, reflective, and empathetic towards others.
I sincerely hope you are sincere. You caused a KUKKLOAD of damage Jack
Awesome 💕🙏
Just having a light hearted explore of things in the moment-You were always one of the greatest advocate’s of the importance of conversation, which as a medium of learning, I probably would have avoided, if I hadn’t heard you talking about it, back in the day. 🙏

And this. Ha! -- 'Make of yourself a light'
> “Everyone knows everything, eventually.”
That concept terrifies LGBTQ folks in homophobic environments.
The fact it doesn’t terrify you means you have privilege.
Take a moment to be appreciative of your privilege.…
They resemble :
1. Sooner or later the consequences of my actions will reach me.
2. Nothing is hidden forever, sooner or later it will be known.
3. The more I learn, the less I know.
Nice, Jack. Still not buying the workshop or the dvd set though.
This is why every question you ask is spectacular 🥹
Have you read The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho?
The “key of life is to know nothing” is tattooed on me.
Yes.

Very zen, King!
I like these.
Remember reading a dev having there manifesto in there personal git and thinking I need to think my own.

Nice. Here's an AI twist..
1. There exists a connection between everything. Hence, I aim to be cautious of my actions as they will inevitably have consequences.
2. With time, everyone gains knowledge of everything. Thus, I strive to act transparently and impartially.
3. My knowledge is limited. Consequently, I aspire to be inquisitive and receptive to learning from others.
are you a guinea pig jack?
did you get the world first experimental mRNA vaccine?
in a world full of non disclosure agreements, transparency is a fairytale.
21 sats promised 🤗
Promises are promises, flowers are flowers 💐
Beautiful principals, Jack. Buddhist in nature.
Curious, do you still maintain a regular Vipassana practice?
foundational awareness amazing
参考にするよ🫂
I read one of the books you recommended: the four agreements.
They are not bad principles to love by either.
1. Be impeccable with your words
2. Don't assume anything
3. Don't take anything personally
4. Always give your best
what's ya vaccination status jack?
did you trust the science?
or did you silence a generation & protect yaself?
he is an egotistical liar chasing power and riches, of course he is not sincere.
You are wise beyond your years, young Jack.
My motto is pretty simple, it keeps me grounded and humble:
-I am strong.
-I am fearless.
-I am one with the universe.
-My heart and soul are filled with joy and gratitude.
-I move towards my goal with the right attitude.
It’s one thing to have these principals, but another to actually do the work to live by them. Always very impressed by those like you who are able to be intentional with every action you take! 🔥
All are very good points. With Vipassana meditation,it's easy to live all these points . dhamm.org
As within as without. The same in your body as in the Universe. All your body systems are connected and the unbalance of that system is where all emotional, physical dis-ease stems from.
Are you doing Vipassana 1 hour morning and evening? It doesn't work less than that. I hope you must be doing it already. Telling you as I have realised that recently.
I’m a nobody, Jack. But if you speak honestly then I have equal value just as any Joe Shmoe or…well … a Titan like
You. When you say connected, do you mean physically or metaphysically?
I’d love to chat about the intangibles.

1. Cause and effect (karma)
2. Truth and reason
3. Humble student

Good stuff @jack
These new since you left Twitter? No offense, but if these were the principles then, it wouldn’t have devolved into the shit show it became.
What Jack shares every time is so simple and direct, full of wisdom
大道至简 ———《道德经》
And interesting approach. I like...
If everyone knows everything, and you know nothing. Does that make you…. No One? 

Understanding this fully requires some buddhist training. ☸️
where do you fail?
looks quite good from a distance ;-)
❤️
flowers accepted. promises…. just have fun.
You live up to these principles better than almost anyone I know tbh
I see. I completely understand 🫂
High praise! ^
@jack and in the twilght be able able to say I lived that way.
We all are ☺️
True 💫👏
❤️ I'm happy you shared that
hello
GK Chesterton responded in an op ed to the question, "What is wrong with the world?" with this pithy gem: "I am." It is a theological fact that in addition to the little knowledge I possess, there is th propensity to screw it up.
I know that I know nothing.
Are you also a follower of Vipassana meditation?
who are you
Thanks for sharing this, Jack.
A physics equation that relates to point #1 is newton's third law "every action has an equal and opposite reaction"
F₁ = -F₂
Every action we take and all energy we release matters.
Nice and simple. I like it. I shall assimilate :-) I once wrote down my own 10 “commandments” in a similar vein - should have to into into Git to iterate and improve :-)
Nice! +1

His shortcoming is that he is too "white left".
Everything else is fine.
He supports Black Lives Matter, and he supports the evil Democratic Party.
I also support the Democratic party in the USA. because they care more about human rights and justice
Wrong, Democratic Party politicians are a party composed of three major groups of "pedophiles, homosexuals, and transsexuals".
It is the American version of CCP.
Democrats, understand public opinion manipulation, and brainwash Americans.
It has nothing to do with fairness and justice.
One advantage he has is that he is open-minded. Can tolerate others, those media, some people criticize him, he never refute.
Even if it was a misunderstanding, he refused to explain.
This avoids injury.
Silence is also a kind of wisdom.
Don't blame on yourself like that Jack! All i see is it is hard to understand you until is it like guessing instead of thinking and organize of who you really are. And info turned to be so messy in their talks. This is the sys i have seen. You are a good mamnered man your words are always asking for people's opinion. You are the forever learner. Hugs from me. Keep going on! You are like Data Sci guy,just know that!
